Route 40/40a will be extended to serve Charlestown Shopping Centre. A new Route 240 will operate a local service from Toberburr to Cappagh Hospital via Finglas Village and Deanstown. The 40d timetable will change and Routes 40b and 40c will be withdrawn. For more details on these changes please click here.

Please note that some timetables changing this weekend have had minor amendments since they were first displayed on this site last month. During this period of change, the most up-to-date timetables will always be available on this site.

The major quiet change is that the 90 service now runs only 0645-1000 five days a week. The 92 finishes at around 1945, except Sunday, when it doesn't go at all. There is now no bus connecting Heuston and the city centre for the last trains, and none at all on Sundays. (I'm discounting the 91 which only runs when BÁC feels like it.)
